Creating in the Age of Sheep


The teachings
of the
modern world,
although
utilitarian and
contributing
to
a lattice
of

intelligence,
can
turn the masses to sheep,
but then,
there is an argument
to be made
that
they were sheep before
and
will be sheep after
or
maybe,
as some have pointed out,
everyone
is
a sheep
to
something,
which others have pointed out,

is part
of
a survival instinct,
in any

event, the masses
are
the masses
but
to be one who creates,
in
any capacity,

must

have a propensity for otherness, however that is to be achieved.
